Question

1. what is x? diagram: point c, two lines from c with right angles at b and d, intersecting a line with f; segments labeled ( 6x + 3 ) (near b) and ( 4x + 9 ) (near d)

Explanation:

Step1: Set distances equal

$6x + 3 = 4x + 9$

Step2: Subtract 4x from both sides

$2x + 3 = 9$

Step3: Subtract 3 from both sides

$2x = 6$

Step4: Divide by 2

$x = 3$
